Who am I?

I am a fellow traveler walking the Path with you. I am a teacher and a student; a lifelong athlete and artist yearning to make a difference. I am deeply invested in my own health and wellbeing, and through my own explorations, study, and training I have come upon a panoply of tools and techniques that compose the constellation of my personal practice. With them, I create an experience of energized clarity and freedom in my life. With them, I create a powerful vision for the future that has me living with purpose.

These are the tools and practices that I bring into my work with my clients. I have personally vetted them and I know that they work.

What are my qualifications?

Ever since climbing out of my crib at eight months old, I have been on the move. I have studied martial arts including wrestling, jiu jitsu, kenpo karate, and muay thai; I have studied ballet, jazz, tap, modern dance, and contact improvisation; I have a personal training certification; I have a twelve year yoga practice as well as a 200-hour yoga teacher training.

Yoga led me to a study of pranayama and meditation. I have spent time in intensive spiritual practice at an ashram and performed thousands of hours of meditation. I have a deep personal study of Wim Hof breathing and cold exposure. I have a weekly winter ritual of jumping into the freezing Lake Michigan and I take regular cold showers.

I have a Master’s degree in Transformational Coaching and Leadership from Maharishi International University and am pursuing a doctorate in the field starting in September of 2024. My relationship with my wife, Elizabeth, is stronger than it has ever been. We have learned to create an intentional life together that is built on satisfaction and the values that we share. We have learned how to fight responsibly in a way that brings us closer, and to take radical responsibility for the outcomes that we create in our lives.

I am in the work; I am constantly growing and developing the gifts that I bring to the table. There is always something new to play with and I am so excited and grateful that I have the privilege of sharing some of the most nourishing activities of my life with my clients.

What is my vision for you?

You are someone who is ready to step into the next most wonderful version of yourself. You are ready to make mistakes and to learn and to grow. You are ready to get uncomfortable by challenging who you have always been because you are beginning to see who you could be.

As we do this work together, you notice the small, incremental ways that you are growing, and the people around you do, too! You may have been pretty brutal to yourself in the past, but now you are increasingly loving and affirming toward yourself, and it shows in your career, in your art, in your relationships. You are really starting to love your life, and it rocks!
